Mainsflush Touch Pad

Collaboration

The success of the Sensorflush development was the result of a close working relationship between Mainsflush and Bayly Group along with software engineers and fabricators.

Process

Following a decision by management to expand their patented touch technology into the prestige market, Bayly were appointed to assist them with the new product development.  Identifying the growing trend of engineered stone used within the bathroom provided a clear direction for the products design.  Next was the integration of the touch technology into the stone face, the touch sensors, PCB and speaker along with a mounting bracket were all required to fit in a small cavity at the rear of the product whist remaining obscure and unobtrusive.  The mounting bracket being the main structural component of the design under went extensive prototyping to ensure it would reflect the products core values of quality and longevity.

Innovation

The Mainsflush Sensorflush won an Australian Design Mark for Housing and Building in the 2010 Australian International Design Awards.  The non-porous surface allows for easy cleaning and reduces the potential for germ build-up.  The integrated speaker was fitted to provide sensory feedback to the user to notify them of activation of the unit.
